點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：2558

The potentially outstanding 2009 Pinot Noir Winemaker’s Block from the Russian River is a limited production cuvee of only 300 cases. Its dark ruby/purple hue is followed by notes of black raspberries, spring flowers and forest floor. Surprisingly deep, opulent, fleshy, pure and long, it should provide plenty of pleasure over the next 5-7 years. Tel. (888) 668-7729

Some vegetal and mint aromas and flavors compromise this otherwise fruity Pinot Noir. Its cherry pie notes are enriched with caramelized oak, but the total effect is labored.——S.H.(3/1/2012)—— 86

The impressively endowed 2008 Pinot Noir Winemaker’s Block exhibits notes of soy, smoky barbecue, forest floor, herbs, black cherries, and pomegranate. Prices are very fair, and these Pinots should be drunk in their first 3-4 years of life. This Gallo-owned operation does a remarkable job with Pinot Gris, making one of the finest as well as reasonably priced in California.Tel. (888) 668-7729
